I don't think my dislike of social niceties is quite as extreme as some, but when people bring their kids or animals to the office and everybody goes clamouring and fawning over them, I just stay at my desk and try to ignore them. With the exception of close friends, I don't really like other people's children, and I don't really see the joy of holding babies or lying about how cute they are. I think babies are only considered cute by their own parents.
